Barbara J. West, Age 77, of Nashville, TN, passed away February 27, 2022. She is preceded in death by her 2 brothers, Gerry and Michael Fitzgerald; her first husband, Gary Guidera; and her uncle Bill McAfee. She is survived by her husband, Warren "Pat” West; son, David G. Guidera; half-sister, Diane Pope; grandchildren, Donald Pope and Gwendolyn Pope; niece, Nicole Fitzgerald; and her uncle, Joe Guidera. She grew and went to school in the Los Angeles area. While working for Zellerbach Paper Co, she met her closest friend, Cherie Weeland and her future husband, Pat West. She moved with Pat to Nashville in 1974. Barbara's greatest joy in life came from her role as mother to her son. Her greatest gift to those who knew here was her friendship. She “collected” office supplies off all kinds and c cards for all occasions. (I often told her to open a Hallmark Card Store). She was always available to listen, lend a hand, and laugh. She especially liked to laugh. As a mother, wife or friend, one would be hard pressed to find anyone to compare. No services are planned at this time.
